Lifestyle gift cards by market
About Lifestyle
Lifestyle is a multi-brand store familiar across the Gulf, with around 200 stores carrying fashion, beauty and home ranges from both international and regional labels. For a recipient, a Lifestyle card means the freedom to choose between a new outfit, a beauty restock or something for the home. For a business, it is a flexible reward or payout that suits a broad workforce or customer base.
GIFQ offers Lifestyle gift cards in four markets: Bahrain, Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Each card is issued in the local currency, Bahraini dinar in Bahrain, Omani rial in Oman, Qatari riyal in Qatar and UAE dirham in the UAE. Amounts and expiry are set per market, so a Bahrain card has its own range and a UAE card another. Check the individual market pages for the exact numbers, but as an example, you can send from 25 AED in the UAE, while in Qatar the minimum is 50 QAR.
A card bought for one market is not redeemable in another. If a recipient will shop in Dubai, send the UAE card. If they are based in Muscat, send the Oman card. When you pay people across several Gulf countries, you can send each person the card for their own market, so their reward arrives in the currency they use.
Through GIFQ, you can send Lifestyle cards in bulk from the dashboard or one at a time through the API. This works for paying out earnings to contractors or research participants in any of the four countries, rewarding a remote team across the region, or compensating customers in local currency. Because the same brand is available in all four markets, you can run one regional programme while keeping each recipient's card local.
Lifestyle suits recipients who appreciate choice. It is an everyday brand in the Gulf, not a luxury one, so it fits modest thank-yous and routine incentives as well as more substantial rewards. A team member in Doha, a customer in Manama, a participant in Muscat and a creator in Abu Dhabi can each get a card that works where they live.
For the specific amounts, expiry rules and redemption conditions in each market, use the market pages. Each one lists the currency and minimum and maximum values for that country, the validity period, and how the card can be redeemed, including the online store and any limits on combining cards.
Choose the card’s market first
This is the brand’s overview page. The options above are products for different markets; open one to review the details that apply to your order.
Start with where it will be redeemed
Choose the option for the country where the card will be used. Each listing has its own redemption coverage, making it easier to find the right product for recipients in different markets.
Compare values and conditions
Currencies, denominations and terms can differ between products from the same brand. Review each market page and its instructions before deciding your selection or calculating the program budget.
Organize orders by product
For a program covering several countries, prepare the product, market, value and quantity needed for each group. Confirm your account pricing and delivery flow before moving from a test to a larger order.
Decide who chooses the brand
With a direct order, your business selects the card. If you would rather let each recipient choose, explore recipient-choice payouts and confirm the products supported for your program.
Frequently asked questions
Which countries can I send a Lifestyle gift card to through GIFQ?
GIFQ offers Lifestyle cards in Bahrain, Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Each country has its own card in the local currency: BHD, OMR, QAR and AED respectively.
Can one Lifestyle gift card be used in more than one country?
No. A card bought for one market is only redeemable in that country's stores and online site. A Bahrain card cannot be used in Qatar, and so on. Choose the card for the country where the recipient will shop.
How do I choose the right market for a recipient?
Match the card to the recipient's location. If they live in the UAE, send the UAE card. If you have recipients across several Gulf countries, send each person the card for their own country so they receive it in their local currency.
Where can I find the amounts and expiry for each Lifestyle card?
Each market page on GIFQ lists the currency and the minimum and maximum amounts you can send, for example 25 to 5,000 AED in the UAE and 5 to 500 OMR in Oman. The expiry is also listed per market, typically 12 months.
What kinds of recipients would appreciate a Lifestyle gift card?
Lifestyle suits recipients who want a choice across fashion, beauty and home goods. It works for employees, customers, research participants, contractors and anyone in the Gulf who can use a flexible shopping card.
Can I send Lifestyle gift cards in bulk or as payouts through GIFQ?
Yes. You can send cards in bulk from the dashboard or one at a time from your own system using the API. This lets you pay earnings, incentives or rewards to many people across the four countries while keeping each card's currency and market correct.
